That is very cool! Reminds me of building drag racing models with my brother when I was growing up.

Very nicely done! I too like the foil use. How did you get such a smooth curve on your headers? They look great 👍

I use putty and can sand it down to a curved surface. Thanks for the kind words!

Very nice model, Mike. Skillfully built. I always enjoy seeing NHRA race cars in paper as they are underrepresented in the paper modeling hobby.

Looks great! How did you make the details? Is this water based clear decal foil for printers? I use them very often.

Thanks. The details of the model are painstaking work of cutting, gluing, and painting small parts made from cardstock paper. Tha decals are just regular decals I've saved from plastic models that I used to build.
